People who suffer with headache, giddiness, palpitation, bad taste In the mouth, drowsiness, distress after eat ing. and any of the other distressing results of Indigestion, are in serious danger. Their digestive organs can not care for the food properly and hence the coats of the blood vessels in the brain get little nourishment, become brittle, and V .ally yield to the fierce blood pressure and one Is then said to have a*'shock," be paralyzed.or die from apoplexy. In all diseases of digestion and nu trition the prescription called Ml-o-na has proven Itself of great value. It is relied upon today as a certainty to relieve the worst troubles of indiges tlon and make a complete cure. That Ml-o-na will cure the worst forms of stomach trouble, cancer ex cepted. and give quick relief In indi gestion is iftuven by the guarantee T. F. Burbank gives with every 50- cent box to refund the money unless Ml-o-na cures. A guarantee like this must inspire confidence. No man Is really In love with a woman unites he can write sonnets to even her lap-dog. Men Past Sixty In Danger More than half of mankind over sixty year* of age suffer from kidney and bladder disorders, usually enlurge ment of prostrate glands. This Is both painful and dangerous, and Foley’s Kidney Cure should be taken at the first sign of danger, as It corrects ir regularities and has cured many old men of this disease. Mr. Rodney Bur nett, Rockport, Mo., writes: ”1 suf fered with enlarged prostrate gland and kidney trouble for years and after taking two bottles of Foley’s Kidney Cure I feel better than I ha^e for twenty years, although I am now 91 years old."

Brad ford. Refuses to Accept Refund. Fiber & Holmes of Brookville.Ind , retail lumber merchants, is one of the firms that are entitled to reimburse ment from the southern railroads under the recent decision of the Su preme Court, which holds an advance in freight rates on lumber, made ef fective about two years ago. is illegal, and requiring the roads to return to shippers the amount paid by them In excess of the original rate. Joseph Fleber, manager of the con cern, however, refuses to accept the rebates. He declares that neither his firm nor any other is entitled to the rebates because they lost nothing by virtue of the Increase In rates. He explains the matter In this wise: ‘When the rate was increased two cents per 100 feet, or from $6 to 112 per car, the shippers immediately met the rate Increase with an advunce In prices of from 50 to 70 cents per 1000. Local retail dealers everywhere ac cepted the advance as a matter of fact, because freight rates had gone up, and they In turn raised the price to con sumers, who In the end paid the In creased freight charges,and then some, and the shippers and dealers not only did not lose anything, but they In creased their margin of profits on every consignment of lumber they sent out.” When Mr. Fleber wus requested a few days ago to make out and sign the necessary papers to prove his claim against the railroads for excess charges, he declined to do so, saying he was not entitled to any money from the roads and would not accept any, unless it could be returned in toto to the consumers who paid It.

Ten Years In Bed "For ten years I was confined to my bed with disease of my kidneys," writes R.A.Gray, J.P. of Oakville, Ind. "It was so severe that I could not move part of the time. I consulted the very best medical skill available, but could get no relief until Foley’s Kidney Cure was recommended to me. It has been a Godsend to me,” E. Bradford. THEY’RE WORTH SAYING. The Bureau of Biological Survey of the United Stnt s Department of Agrlcul uro has issued an important circular as to the us. ful part played by birds In the war against the boll weevil. This pest has cost the farm ers of Texas millions of dollars, and unless some means can be discovered to prevent, will spread over ull the cotton stales. We append some Im portant extracts from this circular No. 57, which every farmer should read: — ‘ Investigations by the Biological* Survey show that 118 species of birds eat boll weevils. While some eat them only sparingly otlurs eat them freely, and no fewer than 47 adult weevils have been found in the stom ach of a single cliff swallow. Of the birds known at the present time to feed on the weevil, among the most Important are the orioles, night hawk (commonly known as the bullhgt.) and foremost of all the swallows (Includ ing the purple martin.”) "The martin Is the largest ami per haps the most domestic of our swal lows. and occurs in summer here and there throughout the cotton States from Florida to Taxas. Its large size, powerful flight, and the great numb- bers of insects (boll weevils among others) It reguircs for Its own sus tenance and that of Its young make the murtln the most valuabe of its tribe to the southern planter; more over, its habit of nesting in boxes provided for It renders Its semldomcs- tlcutlon coni para lvtly easy, as its sociable disposition enables the size of a colony to be increased by the ad dition of new quarters to practically the limit of the local food supply. Where martins occur sparingly It Is not difficult substantially to increase the number of colonies simply by the putting up of additional boxes. As the settlement becomes populous, other boxes may be put up n mile or two away, and thus gradually the birds’ range may be extended should not be forgotten that the nearer to the cotton fields the birds are the more weevils they will de stroy.” "FroflFthe standpoint of the farm er and the cotton grower, swallows are among the most useful birds. Especially designed by nature to cap ture Insects in midair, in their field they have no competitors. Their pecu liar value to the cotton grower con sists in the fact that, like the night hawk, they capture boll weevils when flying over the fields, which no other birds do. Flycatchers snap up the weevils near trees and shrubbery. Wrens hunt them out when concealed und# bark or rubbish. Blackbirds catch thenf on the ground, as do the kildee, titlark, meadow lark, and others; while orioles hunt for them on the bolls. But It is the peculiar function of swallows to catch the wee vils as they are making long flights, leaving the cotton fields In Hearch of hiding places in which to winter or entering them to continue their work of devastation." It is pointed out In this circular that sparrows are the uatural enemy of the swallow family, and a vigorous warfare should he made upon them. It would be well If parents of nest hunting boys—(and what boy does not coine In that category?)—would teach them to discriminate in their depredations, killing the spurrows and destroying their nests, but regarding practically all other birds und their nests as something of value aud to be protected. With the exception of the detested sparrow, the birds are the farmer's best friend, and he will find them es pecially necessary in his Inevitable fight with the dreaded boll weevil. 0. E.
